Description
This 1928 Mathis MY Torpedo Sport Special was originally delivered new in France and is presented in the attractive Torpedo Sport body style. Professionally restored in the past, the car has been carefully maintained ever since and remains in good mechanical and cosmetic condition. It is powered by its original 1, 991 cc six-cylinder engine, paired with a four-speed manual gearbox. A particularly desirable feature is its mechanical four-wheel braking system, an advanced specification for its era that offers improved braking performance over many contemporary cars. Finished in deep burgundy with a brown leather interior, the car retains its original dashboard and instruments and benefits from new Dunlop tyres. A recent professional valuation assessed the car at €45, 000. The Mathis is one of the lesser-known gems of the French pre-war motoring world and offers a wonderfully authentic driving experience. Light, elegant and full of character, this Torpedo Sport is equally at home on historic rallies, concours events or relaxed country drives. Beautifully proportioned and finished with an honest patina, it is a car that attracts attention wherever it goes. Rarely offered for sale, this charming Mathis represents a unique opportunity to own a distinctive and highly collectible pre-war sports car with timeless appeal.
